Lowell, Randy
Dean
Randy worked on semantic and phonological effects in working memory and on studies of attention as an undergraduate researcher, then shifted to studying cognitive processes underlying skilled reading behavior in one's native and non-native languages and their resulting memory representations in graduate school. After joining the USC Union faculty in 2012, he has continued studying these topics, as well as some social psychological topics and their intersections with cognitive processes.
